We're at the HALF-WAY point of the 9th Annual Moonridge Online Auction, with only one week left to go. We had a very slow start - far slower than usual - and it's not picking up all that much either, yet. *fingers crossed* The most worrying issue are the animals - only nine (9) people have actually adopted animals so far and this is like...200% below normal. :( If you want to adopt, go here: http://www.mafg.org/adoptions.htm to view them. All animals are $25 a piece (but you can send more *G*) and you can adopt as many animals as you want.

It's also important to check the "Donation Pages" at the gmfor_moonridge site before sending me an email with the items you want. Especially if you want a First One, First Won item (as it might already be sold) or a Limited Item (one of the few items where it's limited to the first few people who donate for them) as the limit may have been reached. You can go here:

The reason for going to the LJ site URLS above is they'll usually have the most recent updates. It's also important to remember, no matter which site you're visiting (be it the gmfor_moonridge or the official website), you need to REFRESH and/or EMPTY YOUR COOKIES. Remember, your computer will save the cookies and you may get an old version of the page/s! (In addition, if I'm working on either of the gmfor_moonridge pages, they may not be available immediately - just keep refreshing).

And PLEASE remember to READ the FAQ (http://gmfor-moonridge.livejournal.com/17068.html#cutid5) on how to donate items, win items, claim items, adopt animals and PAY. And yes, you can put ALL your items on ONE PAYPAL. *G* JUST DO NOT FORGET TO ADD YOUR ADDRESS (or, if you don't wish to, say so on your Paypal!). Moonridge really likes to thank everyone after the auction and they need your snail mail addy to do so. :)

In conclusion, by tomorrow, there will be MORE NEW ITEMS up - so check them out! They'll be on PAGE 2 of gmfor_moonridge first and then on the Official Website (http://mafg.org/donateditems.htm).

Thank you to everyone who has donated and put in for items and adopted animals so far!
